Rumor: PlayStation 4 (PS4) Developer Kits Shipping, AMD A10 Based

Actually, i don't see the point of BC with PS3. It only makes console too complicated and stop progress because you cannot change architecture much without losing BC. You can continue to use PS3 for PS3 games at the same time as PS4 for newer games.

It's simply impossible to emulate Cell CPU on x86 CPU in real time. Putting Cell CPU as second to x86 is lame too because to much heat and high price. At the end, PS3 didn't die without PS2 BC. Most likely, very popular PS3 games will be re-released for PS4.

Sony, with all due (dis)respect... SCREW YOU AND YOUR PS4!! if i cant play my ps3 games on your new system, have to register my games online before i can play them (ppl with no internet are messed) then you wont get a single penny outta me...†

Ps: Ingame adverts? What the heck are you thinking? I dont want to see adverts while on loading screens and the likes...

Oh and an online pass to be allowed to use your new ps4 online (if not even be allowed to use it at all ).. Users buying a ps4 used are butthurt too once again...
